500E Gurus Please Help

Been watching autorader, ebay etc...for a 500E in my price range...check out this link. First of all - anyone know this car? 2nd. - Is this green a factory 500E color option?? Not seen one. Curious is its factory? Search is becoming frustrating - want to spend under 20k. Trying not to sell 4x4 truck in addition to my 124 Coupe. Want the truck for snow days. Anyone know of one out there in classified land? Check this link below for picts of the green one. Price seems to good to be true.
